Volunteers Cleaning Communities (VCC) Presents at Notre Dame High

Thursday, September 16, Don Larson, Volunteers Cleaning Communities partner, presented to the 11th grade class at NOTRE DAME HIGH SCHOOL in Sherman Oaks on the topics of the ENVIRONMENT and the RESPECTING THE HOMELESS.

There were 35 students participating in this educational program involving a presentation and then activity that complimented the topics.

The students mounted a bus and went to VANALDEN Park for a bag lunch under the cool tree shade before proceeding to get geared up for picking up trash all the way into the NORTHRIDGE TRAIN STATION. A group rounded up 30 shopping carts that have accumulated from the homeless population, while others cleaned the grounds, riverbed area and around the wash. An environmental tune up, you could say.

Thank you Emilie Koster, a VCC Team Leader, for assisting in the day. Thank you Medene Presley, Director of Christian Service and Immersion, for asking us to be part of the program at Notre Dame.

The photos tell the story.

This was one of a growing number of engagements for this kind of lecture and activity at our valley schools for Volunteers Cleaning Communities. Please contact us if you are interested in a program customer to your group on sustainability, environment and homelessness.
